How much notice is required for a full catering brief?

For standard menus we recommend a minimum of 24 hours, which allows us to source fresh produce from the Chiloé coast and Puerto Montt. Shorter lead times are handled case by case — contact us directly and we will advise on what is achievable.

Is kosher catering available at Dalcahue?

Yes. Certified kosher meals are available with a minimum of 24 hours' notice, allowing us to coordinate with our approved supplier network. Please specify requirements clearly at the time of booking.

Which FBO or handler should we specify on our order?

There is no fixed-base operator on the field. When you confirm your order, provide your aircraft's expected stand or parking position and we will coordinate delivery directly to that location, working with whichever handler is managing your ground service.

Can you cater connecting legs — for example, onward to Puerto Montt or Coyhaique?

Yes. We coordinate multi-leg uplifts under a single order reference. Puerto Montt is 112 kilometres to the north and Coyhaique approximately 384 kilometres to the south — both are within our network and can be briefed simultaneously.

How is the catering packaged for island-route aircraft?

All items are packaged in galley-ready containers, labelled by course, seat reference, and consumption order. Packaging is selected to suit the aircraft type confirmed at booking, ensuring efficient service regardless of galley configuration.

Do crew meals follow the same quality standards as passenger orders?

They do. Crew meal sourcing follows an identical process to passenger menus. Options range from substantial hot meals to lighter cold selections, and crew preferences or dietary requirements can be noted at the time of order.

Inflight Catering · Dalcahue

Private jet catering in Dalcahue

Dalcahue sits on the eastern shore of Chiloé Island, a territory defined by tidal channels, ancient alerce forests, and a culinary tradition unlike anywhere else in South America. The island's celebrated curanto — a slow cook of shellfish, smoked pork, and milcao potato cakes prepared in an earthen pit — signals a kitchen culture that treats patience and provenance as inseparable. For passengers departing this far-southern latitude, we translate that spirit into galley-ready format without sacrificing its integrity. Chiloé's waters yield some of Chile's finest centolla king crab, sea urchin roe, and cholga mussels, all sourced through suppliers who work within the island's harvesting rhythms. Puerto Montt, 112 kilometres to the north, extends that supply chain further — adding Andean charcuterie, cold-smoked salmon from the fjords, and fresh seasonal produce that reaches our preparation kitchen well within the hour of dispatch.

Regional Catering Menu · Dalcahue

Fresh catering for Dalcahue flights

Our kitchen leans into the archipelago's produce: cold preparations of centolla dressed with native herb oils, smoked salmon terrines built on a base of Chiloé potato bread, and sea urchin butter served alongside warm sourdough at cruising altitude. Where the brief calls for something more structural, we compose hot mains around Patagonian lamb and line-caught merluza austral, both of which hold exceptionally well through regeneration in the aircraft galley. For morning departures, we draw on Chiloé's dairy — notably the island's fresh quesillo and hand-churned butter — paired with seasonal berry compotes and laminated pastry prepared in-house. Kosher meals are available with 24 hours' advance notice. Crew meals receive the same sourcing discipline as passenger orders; a well-fed crew is an operational asset, not an afterthought.
